2 / CLASSROOM TRAINING INTRODUCTION AND OVERVIEW
33
To move a patient, the LUCAS device can be used on a backboard, carrying sheet or other
transportation device. After you have made a decision about what equipment you will use
and where to put the transportation device, you can prepare to lift the patient.
(
Note: The LUCAS device cannot be connected directly to a backboard. The LUCAS
Back Plate must be used. The whole system can be used on top of a backboard or other
transportation device.)
Those at the patient’s side can put one hand below the Claw Locks under the Support Leg
and with the other hand, hold the patient’s belt, pants or under the thigh.
To lift the patient:
1. Push PAUSE to temporarily stop compressions.
2. Lift and transfer the patient to a stretcher or other transportation device (backboard,
carrying sheet, vacuum mattress or similar).
3. Make sure the Suction Cup is in the correct position on the patient’s chest.
4. Push one of the
ACTIVE buttons to start compressions again.
The device can be active when you move the patient, including at an angle, as long as the
device and the patient are safely positioned on the transportation device and the device
stays in the correct position and angle on the patient’s chest.
Always monitor the position of the Suction Cup. If the position changes during movement,
immediately push
ADJUST to adjust the position. Always use the Stabilization Strap to
help secure the correct position.
Defibrillation
Defibrillation can be performed while the LUCAS device operates.
§
Note: Chest compressions interfere with ECG interpretation. Push PAUSE to
temporarily stop compressions before you perform a rhythm check with a manual
defibrillator or analysis with an AED. Once ECG rhythm check or AED analysis is
complete, you can immediately press either
ACTIVE (continuous) or ACTIVE
(30:2)
.to continue compressions to help make the interruption as short
as possible.
§
You can apply the defibrillator electrodes before or after the LUCAS device has been
put in position, but you should never delay defibrillation of a shockable rhythm to
apply the device.
§
Position the electrodes and wires so they are not underneath the Suction Cup. If there
are already electrodes on the patient, make sure they are not under the Suction Cup.
If they are, apply new electrodes.
§
Perform defibrillation according to the instructions from the defibrillator manufacturer.
